Commonwealth Honda

I would not recommend this dealer because they cannot be trusted to do the right thing. In plain simple english, they screwed me. Granted, I did not go there to buy a car, but, after my experience with the trusted to do the right thing. In plain simple english, they screwed me. Granted, I did not go there to buy a car, but, after my experience with the upper management, this dealership gives Honda and the whole automotive industry a bad name. I work for a company that helps new car dealers find or liquidate new car inventory. This either helps them make money or save money, depending on what they need to do. In the case of Commonwealth Honda, I was working with the General? Manager, TONY GIANONNE, to find them some new vehicles. TONY GIANONNE expressed that he would like to find some vehicles that were somewhat close to him, to keep the transportation cost low. I found a dealer that was willing to give up a total of 13 cars, and TONY GIANNONE agreed to buy them from the other dealer and pay us our finders fee which is common practice, seeing as most of us have to earn money to make a living, not do volunteer work for low-life car dealers. Once TONY GIANNONE found out where the cars were, he suddenly became a ghost, and would not even pick up his phone. A few days later, by visiting both dealers websites and checking their inventories, we discovered that TONY GIANNONE went ahead and made the deal with the other dealer and cut us right out. When I was finally able to get TONY GIANNONE on the phone, his only response was "I have no idea what you're talking about". Calls and letters from our lawyer went unanswered, and I even tried to get the dealer principal? CHARLIE, on the phone, posing as an unhappy customer, all to no avail, which leads me to beleive that this cancer runs all the way to the top. If Commonwealth Honda can do this to a company that helps them, by getting them more of the vehicles they need, and make money on, I can't imagine the number of customers they screw on a daily basis! Just remember this, TONY GIANNONE, one day soon when your fat xxx is laying on the ground having a heart attack, you can consider me PAID IN FULL!!! More

After having previously bought 2 new chev trucks from Commonwealth several years ago, I was in the marked for a new Honda CRV. They play the typical sales games that have given cars sales people a bad re Commonwealth several years ago, I was in the marked for a new Honda CRV. They play the typical sales games that have given cars sales people a bad reputation. After insulting me on my trade in value & then expecting I would be stupid enough to pay a few hundred under MSRP we walked out only to receive calls for let's make a deal on Sunday. That stupid bell they ring after a sale is also annoying & their service department has always left a lot be be desired. Go to Atamian in Lowell, they are honest & treat you with respect, that's what I did & I am quite happy with my new CRV. More

I have never been treated this bad by any business. Wallmart and Mcdonalds care more about their customers then these guys do. Although my salesman Mike McKenna the sales manager Jonathan were frie Wallmart and Mcdonalds care more about their customers then these guys do. Although my salesman Mike McKenna the sales manager Jonathan were friendly and willing to work with my budget, when I made my way to the used car section of commonwealth motors the manager Carlos was very rude and over aggressive. He would not let us leave and insisted that I filled out a credit report even though I did not find a used car to my liking. At this point I still had every intention of buying a new 08 Civic and I wanted to take a quick look at the used cars before I committed to a 5 year loan on a new car. Carlos stalled me for atleast 10 minutes before I could stand up to walk away. I tried to shake his hand and asked that if they found a car for me or my girlfriend (we were looking for either 2 used or 1 new and 1 used) to call me so I could take a look at it. I did not want the kia spectra that he was offering me overpriced. So I shook his hand and said thanks for the offer. As I was leaving he replied, "Oh there is no offer here buddy." and continued with, "you accomplished nothing by walking through that door today." I was shocked and mad my way back to Commonwealth Honda to Report the way that Carlos had insulted me and my girlfriend. I found Jonathan and told him that Carlos was very rude to me and that I was taking my business elsewhere. In the middle of my sentence a man that I had never met yelled to Jonathan, Dont worry Jonathan, Carlos wasnt rude. When I tried to explain that I was trying to leave the used car place and buy a new Civic, He cut me of and said, "Buy a car, you couldnt afford it!" I said "F*@k Y#U and walked out the door. Mike McKenna was new, he started right before presidents day weekend. I had a deal ready and I couldnt wait to sign and drive away with my new car and help out the new guy with a sale, also Jonathan Beaudoin was friendly, a little aggressive but friendly. The other people in the company lost them the sale. Carlos in used cars should be fired for the way he treats customers. My girlfriend also had a problem with him years ago. everyone I talk to and all the reviews paint the same picture. *** DO NOT TRUST COMMONWEALTH HONDA OR COMMONWEALTH USED CARS *** More

I visited Commonwealth today after a lengthy research process to purchase a 2008 Honda CRV EX-L with navigation. My internet request for a price on the vehicle was responded to with a very aggressive pr process to purchase a 2008 Honda CRV EX-L with navigation. My internet request for a price on the vehicle was responded to with a very aggressive price but conspicuously did not mention the navigation system. I tried several times to get Craig, the internet sales manager on the phone and through email to verify the model he was quoting, he never responded. Today I called the dealership and spoke with a salesman who identified himself as Sam and the sales manager, Jonathan, and verified independantly with each of them that the price was for the model with navigation. I explained I was driving a great distance and wanted to be sure I wasn't wasting my time, they assured me I wasn't and that the price was for the model with navi though Jonathan said that Craig had "left out" destination costs ($635)in his price. When I got there and sat down with Sam, I was told that the quoted price was for a model without navigation. I asked why he and Jonathan both told me something different over the phone this morning, Sam insisted that he never spoke to me on the phone, that it was "Tony" whom I spoke with on the phone and that he heard "Tony" tell me his name was Sam. Not only do they lack honesty and professionalism at this dealership but apparently they also lack maturity. I would NEVER recommend them to anyone for anything. More

After we requested a quote via the internet we've been getting e-mail from them once a month, sometimes more. I have written to them a number of times and even called twice being very polite.

This is a whopper: Today we signed P/S for a used 2007 Hoda Fit. After three hours at the dealer of filling out papers and listening to sales pitches, they tell us that the car has no title and they can n Hoda Fit. After three hours at the dealer of filling out papers and listening to sales pitches, they tell us that the car has no title and they can not sell it until they recieve the title. Since they do not know when this might happen, we have to wait. I am sorry but how can a dealer put a car out for sale knowing that they have no title to the car? I asked if they could return our deposit or get us a loaner until the title came in. Low and behold the business manager or whomever she is gets all pissy and says OF COURSE YOU CAN HAVE YOUR MONEY BACK RIGHT AWAY!. She charges out of the room. My God what the xxxx is going on? What happened to customer service? How come I was the one that was wrong? I am spending tens of thousdand of dollars and I am the one that should be patient and wait until they have the time to get me the car. I am supposed to pay for a rent until the title comes in? How come I am wrong? I am, sorry Mr Hoda Dealer that my tens of thousands of dollars ar enot good enough for you. Why don't you hold it for me until you can get your act together? More
